Description
For the one heavy attempt
The Weightlifting Competition Bar 15 kg is built for the moment when everything comes down to one rep. The knurling bites hard, even when your hands are sweaty and your nerves are going. The sleeves spin more freely than on our Weightlifting Training Bar 15 kg – the plates follow the turnover more willingly, and that is exactly what you feel in a heavy attempt. This is the barbell for competition prep, for testing days and for everything you want to prove with one clean attempt.
Honest about it: for everyday training it is not the smarter call. After a few sets back to back you feel the knurling in your palms. If you put in a lot of technique work across the week, reach for the Training Bar 15 kg instead – its more restrained knurling spares your hands across the sets. And if WODs with high reps are part of your week, the Multisports Bar 15 kg is the friendlier option.
15 kg doesn't automatically mean women's bar
15 kg, a 25 mm grip and 201 cm of length are the IWF spec for women's competitions – but the bar gets picked up by anyone who finds the standard shaft too thick in the hand. Juniors, lighter athletes, smaller hands: the slimmer the shaft, the more finger you get over your thumb – and that is what the hook grip lives on in the snatch. The shorter build helps too if you are not 1.90 m tall. If you are used to the standard grip, you will find the same concept in the Weightlifting Competition Bar 20 kg with 28 mm and 220 cm.
Spring steel, chrome plated – and smooth in the centre on purpose
The shaft is chrome plated spring steel. It brings the whip that works with you on the snatch and the clean. In the middle the barbell is smooth, no knurling at all. That is not cutting corners, it is deliberate: on the clean the bar lands on your collarbone and neck, and knurling there would scrape on every front squat. You find your grip width from a single IWF mark per side. The sleeves measure 32 cm per side at 50 mm diameter – the Olympic standard that every Olympic plate fits.

Customer reviews
We pull the Competition Bar out of the rack on testing days, not on a Tuesday evening. The knurling grabs so hard that nothing leaves your hand on a heavy snatch – and for that you don't want to do thirty cleans in a row on it. If you can't decide between the two 15s: count your heavy days. If there are only a few, the Training Bar is plenty.
